"A portrait of my daughter, once a week, every week, in 2015."


Hi Emeralds! I wanted to do Project 365 where you take a photo a day everyday in 2015 but I thought that would just be way too much pressure on me.  I do want to get better at photography and all the forums and posts I've seen related to getting better is that they embark on some type of photography project. I'm only learning the basics and pretty much teaching myself with the help of Clickn Moms and Karen Russells workshop but it has been amazing to see how better it gets and how 
much more of it I understand every time I pick up my camera. I only have the basic nifty fifty but I think many start learning with it and I don't want to invest in anything else until I master it.  That is my photography goal for 2015. Just master the damn nifty fifty. I did tell myself that I could at least complete Project 52 where you take a portrait of your child/children once a week every week in 2015.  I'm already 9 weeks behind but better late than never, right?!  This project I believe started with Jodi over at Practising Simplicity but if that's incorrect, please feel free to let me know.

My intentions are to make my project life better with quality images that really show our life and to also take quality images for my blog.  Nothing is worse than having bad photos and I'm really tired of relying so heavily on my iPhone simply because its easier and more convenient.

I hope you all will be inspired to take photos of your child/children or your significant other if you don't have children or your family members, or just photos of your everyday life to document you. I don't think making memories and keeping them only work for mothers or fathers. Just document who you are today and what makes you happy!  Please link up and share! I would love to take a peek!
